Cryptopunk

Does everyone else in crypto feel that constant sense of creeping anxiety that comes from the hope your bags are about to pump beyond your wildest imagination - and knowing this is a real possibility - yet simultaneously understanding that at any moment the entire house of cards could collapse and you'll be left destitute, homeless and forced to sell your withered body and broken psyche to the nearest megacorp for pennies?

I think perhaps this is the quintessential crypto experience. I mean let's face it. None of us are here for a dull life.

PSA: Unity CVE-2025-59489 doesn't affect RCADIA

https://cointelegraph.com/news/unity-android-flaw-could-imperil-mobile-gamers-crypto-assets-how-protect-yourself

RCADIA users: You're safe. ✅

The vulnerability affects Android/Windows/macOS/Linux builds—NOT WebGL.

This is exactly why we built on browser-native WebGL: sandboxed security, no native library exploits, no command-line injection vectors.

, properly . 🛡️

The McRib is back. historically goes up >2x after the McRib returns. Don’t fade the McRib.

Not financial advice.

Thanks David.

As happens in one’s life, I’ve been taking stock of my last 40 years. It’s been a wild ride. I’ve gone from consulting for the NSA to watching the early stages of Bitcoin. Then, I met Arthur, Jed, and Chris and worked on coding the XRP Ledger. Now, I’ve spent more than 13 years at Ripple.

I can’t begin to explain the depth of my gratitude to this company, the people who work here, and the community that surrounds XRPL. It’s been one of the greatest honors and experiences of my life, second only to my amazing family.

The time has come for me to step back from my day-to-day duties as Ripple CTO at the end of this year. I’m really looking forward to spending more time with the kids and grandkids and going back to the hobbies I set aside. But be warned, I’m not going away from the XRP community. You haven’t seen the last of me (now, or ever).

The last few months I’ve been tinkering on the side – spinning up my own XRPL node and publishing its output data, researching other use cases for XRP (besides what Ripple is focused on), and more. I truly enjoy this part — getting my hands dirty, talking to builders, coding for the pure love of it — and I’m really excited to get back to that. More to come on this very soon, I’m sure.

But back to gratitude — to Brad and Monica — leaders who have been here nearly as long as I have, and are the very soul of Ripple itself. To Chris, who took a huge leap of faith and never wavered. To Arthur, who had the big ideas every time we needed them. To the RippleX team, ledger developers, community members, builders, and everyone else — it’s been an honor being in the trenches with you all. Thank you for everything you have done for the XRPL. I have total confidence in the next generation of leaders and builders – including Dennis Jarosch (Ripple’s SVP of Engineering) – and far too many others to name in the XRP community who will carry the torch.

I’ll still be in and out of the Ripple office as CTO Emeritus, and as my last task at Ripple, Chris asked me to join Ripple's Board of Directors to continue supporting the company’s mission and long-term vision...and I accept!

I look forward to seeing the rest of you at XRP community events around the world.

RCADIA to Continue Operations on

We can confirm that RCADIA, an arcade gaming platform built on The Root Network, will continue its operations, unaffected by the recent restructuring and receivership process announced by Futureverse

https://x.com/futureverse/status/1972769261593763979?t=3SfKqqwrPedarFF9ahvyxQ&s=19

while a significant shift, it does not impact The Root Network's mission to foster a resilient, community-driven ecosystem. We look forward to RCADIA thriving as a cornerstone of this innovative platform.
